Truck in shop from BAD FUEL
About 2 weeks ago I got some bad fuel that did not affect my truck until I burned about half of the tank. I topped it off with good fuel, added a can of sea foam to the tank and pored some sea foam in the fuel filter and changed the filter. Truck started running better but still didn't start exactly right. Would turn over a little long and stumble for about 1 second then idle fine. Two full tanks later, two days ago it died while driving. No surging popping anything. I was able to restart it and continue driving with no loss of power or anything. I got about 30 more miles then it died again. This time I was unable to get it restarted. I looked at the codes, basically all the injectors through a code and the fuel pump circuit low code as well.
My question is, if I have damage the fuel pump / injector pump and injectors what aftermarket parts should I replace them with. I only want 1 step up injectors so should I use stock fuel and injector pumps?

sounds like the light pump kicked the bucket. Time to upgrade quick in a hurry. Wouldn't drive it to much due to causing damage to your cp3. Would upgrade to a Glacier. A-1 systems good price and great product. If you can check your fuel pressure and see how strong your flow is to your filter canister.
UPDATE
Got the truck back from the tow shop. They changed the fuel pump in the tank, he said something about a "new upgrade" from dodge? Truck runs now but it's still not 100%. I can hear the injectors pinging and it cuts out @ 1950 rpm sometimes but once it hits 2K it runs fine. The crankshaft sensor is bad right now, I have another to replace it, I just need to get home. BTW I am working offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. I would like to get a set of injectors from Don, but I can't be without the truck for a week. So I'll probably go with DDP.

yes they changed your lift pump. Dodge doesn't sell the current on on your truck which is on the back of the filter housing. They upgrade to an intank set-up which keeps them from going out as fast. The 05 and up have this same set-up. If you go with some injectors you or any other upgrades youy still need to upgrade your system farther so you don't drain the rail.
Don can do your injectors in 48hrs if he has advanced notice. DDP's are just the nozzles and you retain your stock bodies. So if the injector body is bad you'll still be out of luck. Don can pull the bodies apart and rebuild them and make sure they run better than stock.
